NAME

       nm-online - ask NetworkManager whether the network is connected

SYNOPSIS

       nm-online  [ OPTIONS ]

DESCRIPTION

       nm-online is a utility to find out whether we are online. It is done by
       asking NetworkManager about its status. When run, nm-online waits until
       NetworkManager  reports  an  active  connection,  or  specified timeout
       expires. On exit, the returned status code should be checked  (see  the
       return codes bellow).

OPTIONS

       -t, --timeout
              Time  to  wait  for a connection, in seconds.  If not specified,
              the default is 30 seconds.

       -x, --exit
              Exit immediately if NetworkManager is not running or connecting.

       -q, --quiet
              Don't print anything.

EXIT STATUS

       0   Success  -  already  online  or connection established within given
           timeout

       1   Offline or not online within given timeout

       2   Unspecified error
